Rooftop Shoot with Annie (23/05/2014)

Rooftop Shoot with Annie (23/05/2014)

So I came across this talented artist and model on ModelMayhem. Annie was very enthusiastic about the shoot and was very easy to work with. I met her at the Elephant and Castle station and shot around Elephant and Castle.

I thought the area would be rough, it being Elephant and Castle. It wasn't surprisingly, the scariest people we came across were a group of girls talking about boyfriend issues.

 Probably my favourite shot from the shoot. I just love the way Annie's eyes pop. 

Did I mention Annie is an artist? Her work is amazing! It's quite rare to find someone as talented as her. Her style is very unique. You can see her work: here

I'm finished with college now, and I plan to expand my portfolio throughout this summer so expect lots more posts on this blog! I have several ideas floating around surrounding balloons, and some floral ideas.

60s Summer shoot (19/04/2014)

60s Summer shoot (19/04/2014)

This photoshoot is part of my final piece for my current A2 Photography project. The shoot was at Victoria Park in London. The theme of the shoot was surrounding 60s fashion, specifically the cat eye sunglasses. I wanted to edit the photos in the style of a film effect, with off colours. As you can see, I added a reddish hue to the blacks, and added a creamy yellow to the highlights which gives it the perfect, or imperfect look. I provided the mood board to Tegan, she picked an outfit that looked similarly. I got the sunglasses from Topshop for about £16.

This is my favourite shot from the shoot. I didn't realise that Victoria Park had cultural buildings like this.

It was really chilly, props to Tegan for bracing through it. We switched to a warmer outfit toward the end of the shoot. 

Polaroid Shoot (26/02/2014)

Polaroid Shoot (26/02/2014)

I forgot to upload my Polaroid scans from my previous photo shoot. I took these with Impossible Project PX-70 film and I used the Polaroid SX-70. Here they are:

This particular shot was sort of in the style of David Hockney's "Polaroid Joiners", but I didn't have enough film (or the budget for the film!) so I opted for a smaller scale version with just two frames.

University and Portfolio (06/12/2013)

I've got a few photos that I've yet to upload. I'll probably upload them in the following week, but I've been busy with my Media work as well as my University application. I received an email from a few universities which want me to submit an online portfolio. I've done a few more photo shoots last week that I'm hopefully going to add into my portfolio to balance the type of photography I have in my portfolio. Here is a few shots I've taken and edited. I edited them the photos to create a vintage/retro style look.
